Just got done watching it, props to Rudo for hooking a brotha up when a VCR fails.
THE GOOD
- Mr. Echo stole that entire episode and I noticed that they've added the actors name to the opening credits of the show (sorry Naveen, you're no longer the first name we see.) The tracking stuff was awesome but his faith in people he doesn't know and willingness to help out had me wary. Agreed on the line of questioning regarding Sun.
- Jin's and Sun meeting for the first time. That's love at first sight, no question.
- The shots of The Others walking past Echo and Jin.
- Locke and Suns conversation.
The Bad
- Piss poor use of the flashbacks. There's no point in them when they do nothing to further the character. In Michaels episode all it showed us was that he loves his son, something we knew already. In this one it showed us that Jin was poor and Sun was rich. What a fucking revelation.
- No Hatch? Stupid but whatever. Not a single mention of it? Fucking weak.
Like Rudo said, this was a buildup episode and I'm glad that it didn't end in a huge cliffhanger but the payoff in 3 weeks better be worth it.
